Magal Security Systems secures multiple contracts in Israel

The orders totalling about $8.4m are received from several existing customers for expansions, maintenance and support.

Magal S3 CEO Saar Koursh said: "These orders are a strong sign of confidence by our customers in our execution abilities and the added value we are providing.

"These orders, as well as some additional others recently received, demonstrate a good start to 2016, enabling us start the year with a strong backlog."

In 2014, Magal Security Systems secured a contract to expand the integrated safe city solution and upgrade communications infrastructure to support the use of additional applications for the municipality of Ramat Ha’sharon in Israel.

The company provided integrated solution for a safe city project in Ramat Ha’sharon including a round-the-clock manned primary control centre, a backup control room, cameras, free public wireless access points, public address systems and panic buttons for kindergartens and public areas in 2013.

Apart from extending the municipality’s fibre optic network to cover 80% of the municipality, Magal expanded the safe-city applications for routine and emergency thus enhancing the quality of life in Ramat Ha’sharon.
